Campus Roundup
New Sound Policy Is Considered
The Coral Gables City Commission is studying a new sound ordinance policy that would set a curfew on “unreasonable” sound between 7 p.m. and 7 a m. seven days a week.
Police officers, according to the proposal, could confiscate sound equipment which could later be used at a trial.
USBG President Ken Gardner said, "My feeling is that they're picking on UM. I asked for allowances on weekends but one of the commissioners said definitely no.”
Although neighbors’complaints about noise from the campus is nothing new, Gardner said a party at the Lambda Chi fraternity house last month in which a band played until 1 a.m. was the “straw thai broke the camel’s back.”
FPIRG Goex To Tóp
President Henry King Stanford has replaced Dr. Butler, vice-president for Student Affairs, in negotiations with the Florida Public Interest Research Group (FPIR(i). Dr. Butler, who has led administrative negotiations with FR1RG for the past year, will still assist in the talks.
Linda Weeks, former FPIRG president said “If an agreement cannot he reached between Stanford, Butler and FPIRG, then the proposal will go back to the Student Affairs Committee of the Board of Trustees.”
She said the group was willing to accept a negative check-off system and requested a cost estimate for operating t hecollectinn during registration.
Special Ticket Prices
A new experimental program now enables students to buy two tickets for the price of one for six performances at Dade County Auditorium this semester. The first is at 8 p.m. tonight, starring Count Basie.

Debate Team. U ins
The UM Debate team scored an impressive victory at the University of South Florida debate tournament last weekend.
The team of Robin Lumb and Charles McClelland came in first place in competition with 40 other teams. In the final round, they shut out West Geor-giaStatp3to0.
The junior varsity team, consisting of Nick Duarte and Gordon Taylor, finished in third place, losing a close decision to eventual winner, Michigan State.
Debate coach Wayne Silver said he was pleased at the outcome of the tournament and added "the tournament represents an impressive victory for UM debate team as all hut one of the debaters are new membersof the squad.”
The victory foreshadows great promise for the future, the coach said, because no member of the squad will graduate this year.
This weekend, the team of Lumb and McClelland along with the team of Harry Tobin and Mike Blaha. will participate in Florida State University’s two day tournament. The competition will not include the junior varsity squad.
Itansker Investigation Canned
The USBG Senate reversed its decision to investigate Attorney General Steve Dansker Monday.
Last week, the Senate overwhelmingly voted to create a commission to look into Dansker's activities, overriding a decision by Senate Speaker Alan Richard to leave Dansker alone. The original recommendation to investigate Dansker came from a committee who was investigating USBG Vice-President Alan Harris two weeks ago.
USBG President Ken Gardner said the Senate's final decision was the proper one. "They had to do it. The original recommendation was unconstitutional.”

SAGA Gets Food Contract
By VALERIE STRAUSS
OI Tht Hurrlcan* Stall
SAGA Food service will replace ARA Slater's in all UM's cafeterias on June 1. Although the decision has not been officially accepted by the Board of Trustees, an administrative source said, “We've made the decision, and Slaters has already been advised.”
The final decision was made Wednesday by an administrative committee. After careful consideration of bids from both companies, and a recommendation from a student committee also investigating the fond situation, the decision by both committees was unanimous.
Director of Housing, a member of the decisionmaking committee James Grimm said the main reason the contract was awarded to SAGA was “the money.”
“If we had gone with Slaters it would have cost the students at least $40 or $50 more. We will not only save the students money, hut still provide the same quality of food and service. We told SAGA we would not accept a decline. They must maintain the quality, or improve,” Grimm said.
Slaters was planning to raise their prices approximately $100 per semester. SAGA will keep the price level the same as last semester's, at about $330.
SAGA will be required to put up a performance bond to ensure the quality and service they have promised. Business Manager and another member of the administrative committee .William Mel aughlin, said-I think it ought to be a couple hundred thousand dollars. A small bond isn't as effective as one that hurts."
McLaughlin said the bond is currently in the mall. Once UM receives it, they can either accept It, or negotiate It. When the figure on the performance bond is finally decided, a contract will then be executed,he said.

To its Executive Committee, Garni Gras is more than just fun and games.
The carnival, billed as the largest college carnival in the country, beginning Feb. 20, is months of Hard work, hour» of arrangements, telephone calls and many meetings.
Drew Vella, over-all chairman, began preparing for the carnival last May and worked through the summer. By December a full committee of students was at work.
This committee has the responsibility of the whole carnival on its shoulders: booths, exhibits, security, publicity and events.
Vella carries around a clipboard with pages of what work needs to be completed before the opening. It Includes reminders to buy balloon string, batteries, and orange and green ribbon. Electric and telephone systems have yet to be installed; the WVUM atageand booth need to be built.
Although the committee says the hardest work has yet to begin, the bulk of it (planning, contracting)is behind them.
Publicity is an important factor and they began their campaign months ago. Carni Gras had press kits sent to over 50 radio stations and newspapers. Over 50,000 flyers were also prepared to be taken to elementary and grammar schools.
Letters had to be written to hundreds of people. Everything requires approval, including the acquisition of four clowns to
change in cafeteria employees.
Present cafeteria employees are hired by ARA, not UM. Director of Pearson-Mahoney Cafeteria Tony DiNuzzosaid.
“This doesn’t mean that we are out of a job. ARA will Just relocate us,” he said.
Director of dining services Jim Levine, said all
management positions will be replaced, but other cafeteria employees will probably be retained.
“ARA will offer all management people other jobs. Nobody else will be out of a
job 1 hope," he said.
USBG President and member of the student investigating committee Ken Gardner said some cafeteria employees may lose their jobs.
“SAGA will come in and hire and fire who they want. For the most part, everyone except the managers will be the same, but some may be fired," Gardner said.

After SAFAC Refuses Request
Rat To Try Sunday Cover Charge
By STEVE MORETTI
Of Th« Hurrlcan« Staff
The Student Activity Fee Allocation Committee (SAFAC) has denied a request by the Rathskellar Advisory Board (RAB) for an emergency allocation of $1250. However, at the SAFAC meeting on Wednesday, it was also decided that RAB would receive $900 to compensate the Rathskellar'scapital purchaseof two television sets.
Alec Stephens, chairman of RAB said earlier that if RAB did not get enough money from SAFAC, a rover charge would have to be used to pay for most entertainment at the Rat.
As an experiment, the RAT will try using a cover charge this Sunday night when a rock group appears Thecovercharge will be $1.00.
“Live weekend entertainment that didn’t have an (outside) sponsor might have to be completely phased out if the cover doesn't work," Stephens said.
Cover charges are not used yet, but if they do go into effect a 50 cent cover charge would be used for jazz and disco night and 25 cents for folk night.
RAB received $10,000 at the beginning of this school year. Seven thousand dollars was used last semester for
programming and this semester $2250 has been used. With the addition of SAFACs $900, RAB will have about $1650 to program for the rest of this semester.
However, Stephens said programming is extremely expensive.
"For example Shades of Brown, which is really popular, told us that a conservative, estimate for their fee is $400pernight."
"I don’t know if we'll be able to afford them or not.”
SAFACs decision differs sharply with a decision made by the 1973-74 committee. In that year RAB received a $5000 emergency allocation. In addition to that, $5,000. was given to RAB from the Student Entertainment Committee. (SEC)
So that next year’s RAB won’t run into the same problems, Stephens is trying to get a referendum passed through USBG that would increase the cost of the student
activity fee by $1.50 and thus privide RAB with about $25,000.
“RAB needs $25,000 a year for the RAT programming the students' want, and it would be cheaper than a cover charge."
Bicycles For Rent At UM
By JIM HOLLANDER
Students who find their legs cannot take cross campus jaunts to class will be happy to know they now have the alternative to ride cheaply in style.

The agency's director, freshman Andy Meyer, said Rent-A-Bike has $2300 in expenses, including bike purchases and maintenance. So far, $60 has been taken in which Meyer said, “will pay off one bike "
Along with Dade Cycle, from whom the bikes were bought, the agency intends to make available a map of bike paths in the South Miamiarea.
For one to four hours, bikes can be rented for 50 cents. Up to eight hours costs one dollar and for a day it costs $1.50.
